Publisher's Synopsis
Do You Want to Help Your Talented and Gifted Students Fly?
Is there anything more engaging than the bright "spark" of a gifted and inquisitive young mind? Is there anything more frustrating than not having the time to develop them to their full potential?
Every year all teachers have a few kids who display gifted tendencies, kids who are eager to soak up learning and engage with their teacher at a high level. But I can hear you saying...
"I just don't have the time!"
There is so much content to teach! Common Core implementation, new curriculum, standards-based testing... every minute of an elementary teacher's day is already packed, and so many students need help catching up to grade level.
How in the world can we find time to challenge our high-performing children? In Elementary Einsteins: 4 Simple Steps to Challenging Gifted Students in your Classroom you'll learn exactly how to do it.
The good news? It's not hard to individualize for them when you know the four simple steps. And every step is Common-Core aligned! Bonus: free Resources Page on My Website!
